Axl_sued_me Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 When was the last time there was a great WHITE running back? Put him at WR or slot. Quote Link to comment
glm09 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Anyone who doesn't say RB has not been paying attention at all. Every time when asked, he has said that he was recruited to play RB. Obviously people don't always end up where they are recruited to play, i.e. Cody Glenn, but i would like to see one person in husker nation who predicted him to switch to LB for his senior year. All anyone has ever said that is connected with this kid is that he is being recruited as a running back. Why would anyone discount this? Quote Link to comment
carlfense Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Anyone who doesn't say RB has not been paying attention at all. Every time when asked, he has said that he was recruited to play RB.... Hence the question "Where do YOU want to see Burkhead play?" Quote Link to comment

BTW when exactly was it that PELINI said he was playing running back, I guess I HAVEN'T paying attention. Oh yeah he doesn't mention recruits by name so everything is just speculation. Having a defensive minded coach I wouldn't discount seeing him on that side of the ball. Quote Link to comment
South_O_Husker Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 When was the last time there was a great WHITE running back? Put him at WR or slot. When was the last time there was a "GREAT" white WR or slotback? Wes Welker @ Tech? Not "GREAT" or game changing IMHO Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 We need to create a new position called "Percy Harvin" and put him there. Edit: When was the last time there was a great WHITE running back? Put him at WR or slot. When was the last time there was a "GREAT" white WR or slotback? Wes Welker @ Tech? Not "GREAT" or game changing IMHO Nate Swift? Quote Link to comment

I guess your definition of "GREAT" and my definition of "GREAT" are two different things. Johnny Rodgers "GREAT" slotback/wingback. Quote Link to comment

Color has nothing to fu@k!n do with how good of an athlete you are, how elusive you are, or how good of a football player you are. RB or otherwise. These types of psuedo racist ideas only make you sound like a complete jackass. Enough already!!! Quote Link to comment

It just so happens there are no "white" running backs in the league. Race has nothing to do with preperation or work ethic but in natural athletic ability I have to disagree. There is nothing racist about our comments. They are just facts. Clemson's athletes sure were slower than ours. You sir are ignorant and the JACKASS!!!! Quote Link to comment
HuskerJosh Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Sorry, Clemson wasn't significantly faster than us. Q about outran one of the CBs. So, do black people suck at a kicking? Generally suck at QB? How do you explain those? Quote Link to comment

Generally suck at QB? How do you explain those? Last time I checked Q is also a black man, and Clemson was surprised at his speed and took the wrong angle. They were out coached but generally had better athletes across the board. The ACC/SEC has been recognized for years for their inferior talent. In responce to the kicking and qb comments, I have no idea what you are talking about. Try to put a full sentence together. Quote Link to comment

If this keeps up, suspensions and bans follow. Quote Link to comment
South_O_Husker Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I apologize...talk about a bad topic to argue about, sorry it got off topic. I would like to see what he can do @ safety. ESPN seems to think he is in the mold of a John Lynch Quote Link to comment
skersOVRsc Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 You want to know where I want to see Burkehead play?.............in a National Championship, thats where............. Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 He would transfer before moving to safety. Your source? Everything I have seen has indicated that he'll play wherever the coaches want/need him. Quote Link to comment
